The Colorado State University women’s golf program, looking for its first major team title since March 2010 — and its first under new head coach Laura Cilek — will take a nine-stroke lead into Sunday’s final round of the Ron Moore Women’s Intercollegiate at the newly-renamed University of Denver Golf Club at Highlands Ranch, which was formerly known as Highlands Ranch Golf Club.
The Rams shot their second straight sub-par score — a 1-under-par 287 on Saturday — and sits at 3-under 573 overall.
Next best in the 16-team field are UC Davis at 582 and Kansas at 592. The defending champion — and host — University of Denver shares fourth place at 593, while Northern Colorado is 11th at 607.
CSU’s Ellen Secor (pictured) shares the individual lead with Samantha Hutchison of UC Davis at 2-under-par 142. Secor made five birdies in a round of 70 on Saturday.
CSU’s Saga Traustadottir (143) sits in third place and fellow Ram Katrina Prendergast (144) in fourth.
Also in the top 10 from local schools is UNC’s Beah Cruz (fifth at 145).
